Just compare the wages of the people that work on the goods you consume with your local wages? And look at the lack of regulation in the areas where they work and the resulting pollution etc. It's obviously not fair that someone from another country has less rights than you. It's a kind of slavery.

Different countries having different standards of living isn't "a kind of slavery." Slavery is when people are forced to work and are not paid for their labor.

You're correct that it's not fair that people have fewer rights in some countries compared to others. For example, as an American, I have fewer labor rights than most Europeans. Am I a slave laborer?

In what universe is that slavery?
